What an odd thing to do. I hope it works out for them though. Can you imagine if that thing is perfectly preserved somehow and doesnt need more than just getting it running again.

I remember reading about this Plymouth few years ago.

So it should be unveiled later today. Hope to see pictures soon.

 

why couldnt they just lock it in a room? Why did they need to BURY IT?

 

That is sooo cool. The only thing better is if they found Stephen King was buried with it!!!!!!!!!

 

I was curious and watched the unveiling. Water got in the vault and the entire car was a rusted muddy mess. Boyd Coddington was there to start the car, but it was in such bad shape, he couldn't do a thing to it. Sad

 

What idiots!...they couldn't even "seal" their time capsle right. Ruined an entire car caus they thought it would be cool to bury it...

 

Anyone has any pictures how car looked after unveiling?

 

50 yrs ago the "SEALING" technology was primitive at best.........they should have left it above ground in a capsule I guess..Even the new caskets eventually leak

 

How much is a pristine 57 Plymouth Belvedere worth? Not much of a loss IMO~

 

duh.

Mine looked better than that, but it was a 58.

 

that'll buff right out....

 

Its looks a lot better than I thought that it would

 

True, true. Imagine how bad it would look like if they put some Japanese car from that period in time capsule.

 

It might of fared better just sitting out uncovered. F'n double duh. Whole town is excited about a junk heap.

 

Probably $35-40,000 in good condition. Probably more than your Stang will ever be worth.

 

Fury maybe, but I doubt Belvedere is worth that much.

 

It'll be interesting to see what it looks like once its cleaned up.
